Twisted Pixel goes Kinect with The Gunstringer
One of my favorited XBLA developers is trying its hand at a Kinect title. After introducing us to Comic Jumper and Splosion Man, I’m definitely interested to see what they have in store with The Gunstringer, a game where players get to “marionette a kick-ass undead cowboy puppet through action packed stage performances” with Microsoft’s Kinect.

“As you may have already gathered, The Gunstringer is unlike any Kinect game you may have played previously. There are no minigames, forced gestures, or end of level photos of you in your underwear here. You can play it sitting down, which is great if you just want to play and relax rather than burn crazy calories. Most importantly, you can aim and move with precision not seen in any of the Kinect launch titles, and with a speed and feel that’s just not possible with a traditional controller.”
You can check out a video of the game at the link above. They definitely take a jab at PS3 and Nintendo Wii in the video. What do you think?
